"Are you sure you want to try the suicidal ramming mode autonomous? I haven't tested it yet." -2004 at Nats, we proceeded to ram the ramp at full speed and bend a caster that took 30 minutes to hammer back into place

Re: Famous Last Words

Some of our team favorites

"We don't need no stinking...(Place item here)"
"Sure...the animation will be finnished"
"Becuase it looks cool"
"I'll make it fit" ....runs for hammer
"I think the battery is charged"

and when the entire team does something stupid our mentor goes:

"Thats my team"

Re: Famous Last Words

"yeah, it[the robot]'s off."

"OF COURSE i tested the autonomous!"

[note: NJ regional practice rounds....we took the middle position and slammed another team's robot straight into the corner goal during autonomous, disabling their robot, delaying the schedule while field crew had to remount the sensor.]

Re: Famous Last Words

"It wasn't me." (after I had plugged in an IR sensor wrong back in 2004, and officially burnt it out).

edit: oops, that one is taken, I'll have to try another one

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" and I go insane. (after last year, our robot almost capped center in autonomous)

under breath: **** (after any bad news that may take a long while to fix to good. Pick any four letter word at random)

Yeah it works. Well, at least, it should work. I programmed/built/designed it to work. It works.
